I’m Paige Spence, OLCV’s Board chair. I’ve been involved with OLCV’s work for many years: I joined the board in 2019, and served on staff as OLCV’s Coalition Director before that. I’m proud of the hard work that OLCV does every day to keep Oregon healthy.
It’s no secret that Oregon’s environment is increasingly threatened, endangering our homes, health, and unique quality of life. Sound environmental policies at the state and local levels are necessary for us to safeguard the health of our families and secure the future of our state. This work isn’t easy, but the many and ever-increasing climate threats we’re facing require us to engage in these policy decisions.
That’s where OLCV’s Board of Directors come into place. OLCV plays an important role in keeping Oregon green, while our boards work together to guide the organization and ensure fiscal responsibility. Our board works in all corners of Oregon to ensure equitable environmental outcomes for all Oregonians.
If you’re ready to work with Oregon communities to bring about change and have skills to share with our movement, we encourage you to apply! A strong candidate for our board would have a passion for advancing pro-environmental policies and climate justice and are ready to collaborate in fundraising efforts. OLCV is committed to justice, diversity and inclusion, both in our organization and outwards, so our Board Members are expected to share in our commitment to equity and justice.
Our board is full of dynamic members, passionate about making a difference together in our world, locally and globally. Get to know us by checking out our bios here!
